Weekly WWE Power Rankings: Limitless Brutality And Top Guys On Top

Women’s Power Rankings

Raw Women’s Champion: Becky Lynch

SmackDown Women’s Champion: Bayley

NXT Women’s Champion: Shayna Bazler

Despite getting choked out on the latest episode of NXT, no one has had a better month than Rhea Ripley. She has scored victories over the likes of Sasha Banks and Charlotte Flair, led Team NXT to a victory at Survivor Series and, alongside Candice LeRae, pinned the NXT Women’s Champion inside of War Games. Rhea gets her NXT Women’s Championship match December 18th and its hard to imagine anything slowing down her momentum.

Asuka, alongside her fellow WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship partner, has been on a roll lately. Ever since their turn to the dark (and green) side, they have been stacking up victories against any team that comes their way. Raw Women’s Champion, Becky Lynch, says she has one more debt to collect, and many believe that Asuka is the one ready to challenge her for the strap.

Charlotte is undoubtedly a star in the Women’s Division, but hasn’t exactly found her place since switching back to the red brand. She has been in these mix and match tag teams with the likes of Natalya and former best friend and rival Becky Lynch, but after her impressive match against Asuka and Sane, we were reminded that it’s going to take more than one person if you want to take down The Queen.

Lacey Evans made the switch to SmackDown and immediately targeted the top tandem in Sasha Banks and Bayley. So far, the marine and mother has bested the duo, and it looks like she is on pace to either face Sasha Banks or take on Bayley for the SmackDown Women’s Championship at WWE TLC.

Sasha Banks has been glued to Bayley’s side ever since she made her return, and as long as they stay together, they will be a top tandem in the WWE. However, if Sasha continues to just play second fiddle to the SmackDown Women’s Champion, she won’t be able to climb up much higher on the rankings.

One half of the Women’s Tag Team Champions, Kairi Sane has shown that she is one of the top women in WWE. However, she is currently just a tag team specialist, while Asuka has shown success in the singles division. So, for that reason, Kairi doesn’t crack the top 5.

Ever since turning on Candice LeRae, Io Shirai has been one of the most feared competitors in NXT. She had a strong showing at both War Games and Survivor Series, but her lack of appearances on TV recently have allowed her to slip down in the rankings.

The Goddess has made a triumphant return to action by saving her best friend, Nikki Cross, and defeating Mandy Rose in singles competition the next week. If she keeps this up, she could soon be a contender for either the SmackDown Women’s Championship or the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships in the near future.

Dakota Kai no longer cares about friendships, nor does she care about wins. Fresh off of a brutal heel turn at War Games, Kai’s new attitude has put her in the sights of many women on the roster, and oit looks like she is up for the challenge.

Candice LeRae was able to help Rhea Ripley fend off four of NXT’s top Superstars inside of War Games, but after getting attacked by Kai, her momentum has been stalled for the moment.
